DISRUPTIVE DESIGN, ENGINEERED FOR FUNCTION: OAKLEY AND ALBINO & PRETO ANNOUNCE FIRST-EVER GLOBAL JIU-JITSU COLLECTION

Global eyewear leader, Oakley, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu lifestyle brand, Albino & Preto are combining forces to release a collection of eyewear and martial arts apparel. With Jiu-Jitsu pieces designed for functional use and everyday wear, the Albino & Preto x Oakley collection channels Oakley’s bold design DNA and A&P’s ethos of redefining Jiu-Jitsu as a lifestyle.
 

Past collaborations between Albino & Preto and Oakley® were limited to friends-and-family drops, custom kits for ADCC teams, and fan giveaways. The Albino & Preto x Oakley collection marks the first ever global launch between the two brands that will be available to the public.

A limited edition gi heroes the dynamic martial arts collection, with co-branded patchwork and elaborate embroidery details. The collection also features a nogi set, with rashguards available in long-sleeve and short-sleeve options - a commemoration of the custom A&P x Oakley kits designed for the ADCC team.  The collection is rounded out with A&P x Oakley® Eye Jacket sunglasses that feature ember-colored Prizm™ lenses and design elements that echo the collection's aesthetic. Belt-ranking colors are subtly incorporated into each piece within the collection, a design nod to the Jiu-Jitsu practice. 

The Albino & Preto x Oakley collection will be available on Oakley.com and select Oakley retail stores beginning September 3. Stay tuned for more information on the second chapter of this global launch.
